“I was hard in the taxi when you kissed me. “ I lean forward to kiss her. “The way you ran your tongue along my bottom lip, made me think about how that would feel over the head of my dick.”
Her cheeks flush. “You have time to come up?”
“I can stay the night.” I pocket my phone. “Athena doesn’t have class tomorrow so she’ll be there when Zach wakes up. She’ll get him off to school.”
“Tonight meant a lot to me.” She looks down the street when a car horn blares. “I felt like I belonged there.”
“You belong there,” I stress the words. “They want you back next Sunday, angel.”
She did belong there. She sat next to me as we watched a comedy with my siblings. She was quick to toss popcorn back at Zach when he leveled a handful at her.
I saw the look on her face when Athena hugged her goodbye, followed by Zach. Breccan gave her a fist bump, which for him is akin to a full-on embrace.
In my wildest dreams, I couldn’t have imagined a scenario where the love of my life fit into my family with such ease.
“I’ll be there.” She fishes in her bag for her keys. “I want them to like me, West.”
“They do.” I take the keys from her hand and motion toward the doors of her building. “I know you just met them, but I’m telling you, Linny, they’re hesitant when it comes to meeting new people. Trust is about as easy for the three of them as it is for me.”
She yanks on my hand to stop me. “I would never hurt them, or you.”
“I know.” I kiss her palm. “We’re going to take this at the pace that works for all of us. We’ll stumble and make mistakes. Things will get messed up because that’s how it works with them and me, but we keep moving forward. You’re part of that now.”
I see the hesitation in her expression, so I keep talking to soothe that anxiety. “I know it’s a lot, Linny. I’m not asking for anything more than what you can give.”
She stares at me. “My life is upside down right now.”
I pull open the main door of her building and follow her through. “Did you clean out your office yesterday?”
She stops in the lobby and turns to me. “My dad was there. We talked briefly. He’s going to give me some time and space.”
“That’s good.”
“I’ll be taking over your account and one other that means a lot to me. “ She rubs the back of her neck. “It’s a jewelry store. Whispers of Grace.”
“Ivy Walker’s store?” I ask with a smile. “Jax’s wife?”
Her head tilts. “You know them?”
“Jax is an old friend.” I reach to touch her shoulder. “I was going to ask if you wanted to be my date to his surprise birthday party next week.”
“You mean non-surprise party.” She rolls her eyes. “He knows all about it. I was invited too.”
“We’ll go together.” I squeeze her bicep. “It will be our first official event as a couple.”
“The vanilla vodka launch party will be our second.”
I point to the elevator. “The second of many, angel. I need to fuck you so get your ass on that elevator.”
The lures a smile to her perfect lips. “You know just what to say to me.”
I lean down and whisper in her ear, “I know just what to do to you too.”

I glide a hand under her bare ass and tilt her body to just the right angle so I can slide my cock against her tender core.
“You’re teasing me.” She slaps a hand over my shoulder. “Enough, Jeremy. It’s been so much already.”
